Sep 17, 2025: New SYS_CONTEXT function for getting context about applications, sessions, and organizations¶

You can call the new SYS_CONTEXT function to get context information about:

• The current application

• The current environment (for example, the current account or region)

• The current session

For example, you can:

• Determine if an application role is activated.

• Identify the client, driver, or library that is calling the function.

• Determine if the function is being called by a person, task, or SPCS service.

You can also get context information about organizations, including information about the organization information related to the session. For example, you can:

• Determine if an organization user or group has been imported.

• Determine if the role representing an organization user group is activated.

• Identify the name of the organization user who started the session.
